3.
Determine the plug type purchased by the homeowner. It is either a
NEMA 6-50 or 14-50 type plug.
4. Determine if the desired circuit rating requires a hardwired circuit.
5. Ensure the electrical panel supports a 240 V dedicated circuit with a
new, dedicated, non-GFCI two-pole circuit breaker, in accordance with
local codes and ordinances.
Note: If local codes require a GFCI breaker for plug-in installation,
ChargePoint recommends a hardwire installation. We do not
recommend using a GFCI breaker as the Home Flex has charging
circuit interrupting device (CCID) protection. Using a GFCI breaker in
the panel can cause nuisance tripping.
6. For plug-in installations, the NEMA outlet should be located 500-660
mm (20-26 in) from the ground adjacent to the stud where the
charging station will be mounted.
Note: The input power cable is 300 mm (12 in) long (as per the National
Electric Code for EV chargers). Ensure the outlet is installed close
enough to the stud for the input power cable to plug in.
7. Follow all applicable codes and ordinances and pull a permit for
completing the electrical work as required.
Refer to the full Installation Guide and mounting template for additional
information. The Installation Guide is available in the box and online at

circuits. Ensure all power and ground connections, especially those at the breaker and bus bar,
are clean and tight. Remove all oxide from all conductors and terminals before connecting wiring.
